GENERAL SAFETY RULES
• Do not leave the mower unattended while running.
• Keep hands and feet away from cutting area.
• Operate the lawn mower only in daylight or good artificial light.
• Always wear safety glasses with side shields. Everyday glasses have only impact resistant
lenses. They are NOT safety glasses. Following this rule will reduce the risk of eye injury. Use
face mask if operation is dusty.
• Wear safety glasses or goggles that are marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1 standard when
operating this product.
• Use the right appliance. Do not use the lawn mower for any job except that for which it is intended.
• Do not force the lawn mower. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating the lawn mower.
Do not operate the mower while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating the lawn mower may result in serious personal injury.
• Keep machine in good working condition. Keep blades sharp and guards in place and in working
order.
• Check all nuts, bolts, and screws at frequent intervals for proper tightness to be sure the
equipment is in safe working condition.
• Stop the motor and wait until the blade comes to a complete stop before cleaning the lawn mower,
removing the grass catcher, or unclogging the discharge guard.
• When not in use, mower should be stored indoors in a dry, locked up place—out of the reach of
children.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, this product has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other) and will require the use of a polarized extension cord.
The plug will fit into a polarized extension cord only one way, if the plug does not fit fully into the
extension cord, reverse the plug.
If the plug still does not fit, obtain a correct polarized extension cord. A polarized extension cord
will require the use of a polarized wall outlet. This plug will fit into the polarized wall outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the wall outlet, reverse the plug. If the plug still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper wall outlet. Do not change the equipment
plug, extension cord receptacle, or extension cord plug in any way.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to pull the lawn mower or to disconnect the plug from
an outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock.
• Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to
